Obituary: Marquette County, Wisconsin: Mary EUBANK ************************************************************************ Submitted by Joan Benner, April 2008 © All rights reserved. http://www.usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm ************************************************************************ From the Plainfield Sun [Plainfield, Waushara Co., WI], Friday Dec. 26, 1902, Page 4 Column 2 (apparently copied from the Hancock News) It is with sadness that we record the death of Mrs. Mary EUBANK, which occurred in the village of Westfield, Wisconsin, Dec. 12, 1902. Mary M. BALL was born in Fenner, New York, Aug. 2, 1839, and came with her parents to Brookfield, Wis. in 1847, where for some years they assisted in the development of Waukesha County. In 1856 she was married to Thomas EUBANK, moving to Marquette county in 1857, where they resided in Montello until 1879, when they moved to Wautoma, thence to Hancock in 1881, remaining until two years ago, when she decided to make Westfield her permanent home. Her elder daughter, Mrs. Anna L. CAMPBELL, died in 1881, and the following year she was again bereaved by the death of her husband. She is survived by a daughter, Mrs. Edna W. PERKINS, and a son, Hiram J. EUBANK, who together with Mr. PERKINS, her three grandchildren and her brother, H. S. BALL, and wife, of Appleton, cheered her last days with tender affection. A sister, Mrs. S. R. CROWELL, of Iroquois, South Dakota, was unable to be present. Mrs. EUBANK was, during many years of her married life, identified with the hotel interests of the communities in which she lived, and her sympathy and practical help were ever extended to the unfortunate. She smoothed with great affection the declining years of her aged parents and was a most devoted daughter, wife and mother. The deceased was a member of the Congregational church and a charter member of the Women's Relief Corps and of the Order of the Eastern Star of Hancock, Wis., and did all in her power for the advancement of these organizations. Her funeral services were held at Westfield Sunday afternoon, Dec. 14, 1902. ---Hancock News
